Summary: Action of Key Modifiers in DeepView


You can modify the action of many DeepView commands using the keyboard. See the table below for a full list.

Open this summary at any time from the link near the bottom of the Contents frame in the DeepView Tutorial.

NOTE: Option+left-click in Mac OS X corresponds to right mouse click in Windows.

If you find other differences in key mapping for Windows and entries in this table, please notify Gale Rhodes.

If someone wants to make a similar table for Windows users, please modify this table and send the html file to me for posting on this page. Separate tables for PC and Mac would be more tidy.
